Into The Cornfields

Colin Hay

    Continues after the ad

    Driving through the south, no need to stop for gas
    That's all taken care of, by the gas man
    Some of it is very beautiful, and some of it has scars
    And some of it is ugly, as a bigot in a bar

    Driving through the south by car, me and Bonn and Charlie B
    The night makes us stop, by the side of the road for tea
    I stare up in the distance, a branding iron is stuck up in the
    night sky It's in the shape of America, and it's in flames, but I'm not sure why

    Into the cornfields
    Into the cornfields

    And we know a secret, it happened some time ago
    A woman killed a man here, she was in a travelling show
    Burlesque you could say, with breasts and body beautiful
    But serpents appeared from her shoulder blades, that's why the people come

    Into the cornfields
    Into the cornfields
    Into the cornfields
    We don't we don't we don't want to go

    We're in Virginia now, it's so beautiful and green
    Hill and valleys and opens skies, yes it's the best we've ever seen

    We're still sitting by the roadside, waitin' for a sign
    Yeah me and Bonn and Charlie B, together for a time

    Into the cornfields
    Into the cornfields
    Into the cornfields
    We don't we don't we don't want to go

    Into the cornfields
    Into the cornfields
    Into the cornfields
    We don't we don't we don't want to go back there
